Description
The COMET Red Parachute Rocket is a long-range day or night distress signal. After launch, the rocket carries a red flare to approximately 300 m, where a parachute slows its descent and keeps the 30,000-candela signal visible for at least 40 seconds.
- Long-range distress signal: designed to attract attention over greater distances than a hand flare.
- 300 m launch altitude: elevates the signal well above the vessel for broad line-of-sight visibility.
- 30,000-candela red light: high-intensity emergency visual signal.
- 40-second minimum burn: parachute-supported descent prolongs visibility.
- Self-contained hand launch: integral rocket and ignition arrangement requires no separate launcher.
The current COMET Para Red MK8A is built for marine emergency use and meets major international marine-equipment approvals. Store in a protected, accessible location and replace at the marked expiry date.
